Song Hongmei has been selling egg pancakes at a stall for several years, and she buys the sauce on the egg pancakes wholesale.
She has accumulated a lot of glass and plastic jars over the years, and they are all locked in the narrow bicycle storage in her old neighborhood.
Now that I have brought two or three here, it is nothing.
On the other hand, my son Zhu Lingqi was a little embarrassed:
"Mom, what can we buy on the way home?"
Otherwise, it would be an empty basket, a plastic bag, and a large glass jar, which would really make me lose my temper.
Song Hongmei thought about it and said, "I have to buy it. Your grandpa said that his share should also be given to Tantan's family. In fact, I shouldn't take these things. Tantan's food is delicious. If you can eat two or three bowls each of us later, we can still live a good life."
Isn’t it enough?”
When he said this, his eldest uncle Zhu Jun also felt distressed - it was the same reason. But he couldn't blame them. In fact, the food Tantan gave was indeed delicious, so why couldn't there be a way to have both sides?
He had no choice but to grit his teeth and said: "Da Mei, when you cook the rice later, you can add more water and cook it until it becomes sticky. Wouldn't it save rice if you eat two bowls in one meal?"
This is a solution, but the aunt was thinking about the prices of the vegetables at Tantan's house, and she couldn't help but feel heartbroken: "Why don't you eat it?"
"I'll bring whatever I see in the garden and set up a stall to sell it. I'll give them all the money from the sale... Why are you looking at me?!"
"Isn't our dad going to build a house soon? They have to pay a lot of money. I, I can't give that much, what's the value of helping sell vegetables?"
I heard before that it was packaged for others, but now that there are so many dishes, I guess the price is too expensive and fewer people are buying them.
The vegetable market over there doesn't have such a dish yet, let's try it.
Logically speaking, this proposal saves money and eliminates worries, which is a good idea. But the father and son looked at each other, thinking of the tastes they had tasted before, and still couldn't help but want to indulge -
"Forget it, that's what the Sancheng family wants too. If we don't take it, they will feel uncomfortable..."
"That's true."
Song Hongmei thought about it again and again, and finally could only grit her teeth: "Ling Qi, we'll go to the vegetable market later and let's cut 20 kilograms of meat first!"
Nowadays, the price of pork is not expensive, but 20 kilograms costs 300 yuan!
This is not three hundred yuan. It is clearly a piece of meat from the aunt's heart! It made her expression extremely painful when she paid.
After getting in the car, he stared at the father and son:
"It's all your fault, why do you have to eat it? Can't I just hold it back!"
"If you can bear it, we don't have to spend so much money today. Just buy 10 kilograms of meat."
The father and son were beaten and scolded at will, but they couldn't let go of the matter of eating anyway. Fortunately, Song Hongmei's temper was also optimistic, so she would mutter for a while and forget it when no one said anything.
Instead, he made up his mind: "Today is the holiday, so we won't go to the supermarket to grab food. We will also save 30% of the family for dinner, so we can save another meal."
…
Unlike the aunt, the aunt is busy here, arranging goods for various shops in the city and scattered individual customers, while the couple is still chatting:
"Ulan asked us to come over for dinner today. He said that our parents are also here. What should we bring tonight?"
Uncle Zhang Hong thought for a while: "I think these gift boxes are very popular this year. I will pick a few more tonight and let's bring more."
Yan Ping stayed there every day, and even though he did some work, how could their parents not know that kind of work? It was definitely not as good as others.
Besides, the food at Tantan's house is so expensive, and the child is so tall and strong that he doesn't even know how much he can eat in one meal!
Thinking of this, Wu Fang changed his mind again:
"Don't take the gift box. I heard Tan Tan say that they buy meat and fruits for the engineering team on the mountain during the holidays. I'll give her a call and don't buy any fruits."
"We've finished our work in the afternoon. We're going to pack up all the fruits in the store. We'll take all the loose ones or those that are of a different quality."
They are wholesalers of fruits, and I'm afraid it would cost one to two hundred pounds to pack them in bulk. Fruits are expensive nowadays, so it's not a small kindness.
only……
After thinking about it, the couple looked at each other again: "Didn't Yan Ping say that he likes the girl from their village? Ulan said that it was probably Dr. Xiao Guo from the village... Do you think we should prepare something for this festival?"
As soon as this was said, both the couple were stunned.
What are you preparing for? I have no experience!
So when it was time to eat at noon, Wu Fang hurriedly called her son:
"Yan Ping, you said you liked that girl last time. What does she like to eat? I'll bring you a few boxes of fruit. You can give them to others later."
"No." Zhang Yanping's voice sounded smooth and smooth, without any waves: "Mom, don't bring anything with you. I don't like her now, and I have no worldly emotions."
If a person's mind is filled with winter melon and soybeans, he may not be able to recall that inconspicuous throbbing at the beginning.
But Wu Fang was confused. She didn't expect that her wonderful daughter-in-law would fly away now!
She wanted to persuade her, but she didn't know how. In the end, she could only hum: "It's okay, Yan Ping, Mom is not urging you... We will talk about it later... Well, you see, we won't talk about it now anyway.
We are in love, how about we come back and take the public exam?"
"It's okay to take the exam. As long as you have a stable job and your salary doesn't matter, your dad and I have saved enough money for you."
Zhang Yanping:......!!!
How could this be so?!
He tried hard to find an excuse: "Mom, forget it, I'm not in the mood right now, I'm not in a good mood, I'll just take it easy..."
Before he finished speaking, Wu Fang said decisively: "Yes, I read on the Internet that you have to take advantage of the strength of a broken love to learn well!"
Zhang Yanping:......
He took a deep breath: "Mom, don't talk about this. It's normal for us young people to fall in love and get back together. Why do you have to ask so carefully? I will tell you when there is a situation. By the way, you can have any fruit.
Bring some to try something new."
Wu Fang looked at her phone, thinking about the love-hate entanglements in TV dramas nowadays, and couldn't help but shake her head in distress:
"You said, why is it not as easy for young people to fall in love now as it was back then?"
And here, Zhang Yanping found Song Tan:
"Tan Tan, what should I do? You can try to persuade my mother! There is really no future in the exam!"
Song Tan looked at Zhang Yanping carefully——
When her cousin was first brought back to the countryside, he was white, fat and weak, but had a big frame. After this period of labor, Zhang Yanping was actually not that strong anymore, and his figure could even be said to be that of a standard muscular man——
Except it's just too dark.
And for some reason, when I was fat, my facial features were friendly and kind, but when I lost weight, I became angular, just like those who were swept away and eliminated in those policies...
She said sincerely: "Brother Yanping, there's no need to worry. Just say that with our image, you won't be able to pass the public examination, right?"
